Synopsis

The colonisation of Ulster during King James I's reign is, arguably, the most significant event in Irish history. The 17th-century influx of English and, more importantly, Scottish settlers into the six counties caused the political and religious conflict that still dominates the province today. Michael Sheane's well-researched history studies all aspects of the immigrants' early years - the corruption of the wealthy landlords; the political manoeuvring; the treatment of the indigenous Gaels; the economic climate; and, of course, the introduction of Protestantism into the last Catholic stronghold of King James's kingdom.
